Update on the PAPG Campaign: We Met Our Goal!


Thank you to all the Park Academy families and your amazing support of the Parent Group Annual Campaign. We have surpassed our goal and will be able to provide a final number in the next few weeks once our corporate matches are calculated. Also, we will be receiving our generous $3,000 match since we met our goal! We are excited to be able to continue to support our teachers and contribute to the new Elkay water fountain at our school. Thank you to all who donated, it is greatly appreciated!

Congratulations to the Thessin Family, the winners of the Anastasia tickets and the DeGuzman Family, the winners of the Thorns tickets.
